Blackwater Farm is set in 160 acres of beautiful undulating countryside in the valley of the river Wensum. The land is well-drained and features woodland, pits, banks and water jumps in and out of the Blackwater river, and jumps on the water meadows. Course length is approximately 1.7 miles (2,800 metres).

There are six courses, featuring many natural jumps, at 2’ 6”, 2’ 9”, 3’, Intro, Pre-Novice, Novice and Intermediate horse trials. Blackwater Farm is one of only two venues in the country to run long format classes with steeple chase and roads and tracks phased at British Eventing 100 level.

There is temporary stabling onsite for 80 horses. Blackwater Farm’s cross country courses and facilities are available for schooling all year round, weather permitting. During the year we run Spring and Autumn Hunter Trials, Unaffiliated One Day Events, Eventer Trials, Dressage and Show Jumping events. For dates and schedules see What’s On.
